Re: 53 Surburban "Family Truckster"
As I wait for my buddy to come finish my exhaust I figured I would work on some other random tasks. I dropped in my radiator to see how it fit My radiator support is original and in super shape. At first I left the cross bracing but I could tell that I need to remove them in order to fit my 4 core radiator. I also had to clearance the lower inside corners as my tanks hit. Now that I dropped that radiator in I can see if a Cooling Components fan/shroud will fit. I only have 2.25" clearance so I might need to get creative here.
I wanted to see how the cowl cover and hardware looked so I bolted that in place. I'm stoked to see some of these details that have been in my head come to reality..
I started to give my chrome grill a brushed finish to match the rest of my trim. It was too dark for an after pic so I will post pics tomorrow on that (teaser...see what I did there).
Lastly I made one of my transmission cooling lines. I need to pick up some more flex hose from Summit....
